- Still works in 2021! This error: "Windows cannot be installed to this disk. the selected disk has an MBR partition table. On EFI system, Windows can only be installed to GPT disks" is common when installing Windows 10 on a PC or Mac. Hence, you need to take an extra step to fix it.

Are this way will be data loss for other drives?
@@msknowledgechannel1600 Data loss will happen only on the drive you select. For example, if you choose "disk 0", data loss will occur only on "disk 0". If you have other drives such as "disk 1" or "disk 2, these wont be affected.
OMG I love you thank you!!!!!!
TechLunar when I do this it says it can't convert. Any options? Thanks in advance. Keep up the good work!
TechLunar how about converting only on one partition
Many thanks, does work perfectly but please remember to refresh drives before moving forward.
Thank you bro. You help me too
read this and did not understand. but i see now, i got so scared when i realised it was not thier. Tysm
Thanks you very much, worked like a charm!
Thank youuu!!
THANK YOU!
*throws keyboard out window*
*finds this video*
*retrives keyboard*
*flushes the mouse down the toliet*
@@mikeperham7290 Hahahahaha
Throws computer out the window. Pun definitely intended
MAKE SURE YOU CLICK ON "REFRESH" AFTER EXITING "SHIFT-F10" OR THE CHANGES WILL NOT APPEAR.
BRUH….
Thank 🙏
Excellent! That’s what I needed
Ty mate
You literally saved me two years later what a leyend
i know this video is five years old now, but this helped me install windows 11 on a new pc that wasn't windows 11 ready. much appreciated
tiny 11 ftw
You sir deserve a medal. I've been at this for hours and talked to several MS IT guys online and none of them could help like you did. Thank you so much youre the only one that actually solved the problem.
Three years later and still saving lives my man. Thank you so much Lunar, you definitely saved me countless sleepless nights of frustration and sadness. Keep on rocking
thanks for this! you went straight to the topic without a 10 minute intro and were very clear on instructions. this is the video we all needed!!
tears in my eyes man :( I was struggling since 4 PM and got to see your video at 12:00 AM.....Thanks a lotttttt!!!!!!! just one like is not enough, I will get you as many likes as I can from my friends
Same bro 👍👍👍
It worked, after spending 4 hours trying to figure out. You saved me mate.
man at this point i just go to youtube anytime an issue arises. I learn more that way and don't suffer for hours anymore lol. i feel your pain backcenter
It’s 2023. Still this video is life saver bro
it's 2023 and this issue has been existing years past yet I encountered this just now. This is timeless! You're a lifesaver!
Great video. For those that couldn't make out the key combination to get to the command line interface, it is SHIFT + F10.
You're a gentleman and a scholar. I thank you good sir!
This is "THANK YOU" button.
For all the people asking what is "refresh" command at the end: It is not a command; when you exit, there is the refresh button under the list of your drives (down left, 2 blue arrows).
No Bro you don't have to delete all your disk data, the problem is with bootable USB or boot mode. Boot mode you might have UEFI due to that it is expecting GPT drives. And 2nd possiblity is Bootable image under USB drive is created using GPT, so you just have to re create new bootable image with MBR-NTFS. The way you have explained, due to this people will loose all there data and it's complicated to take backup in case of someone is even not able to go login to windows or crashed OS.
I think this video helps people that have already reformatted their os storage and expecting a smooth install on the new one. I panicked for a moment because that's what I did. No point of return lol
THANK YOU
Thanks to the video and thanks to the comment that reminded me to refresh the disk. You guys are saviours.
Dude you had me feeling like I was a hacker on a movie when I was typing in these codes and shit lol
I hardly comment on videos bit thank you so much! This has been stressing me out for hours and within 2 minutes of your straight to the point video Windows is now installing. Thank you so much seriously!
Thank you SO SO MUCH DUDE. You have no idea how hard I was stressing! I thought my computer was done forever and wanted to cry. This is really a miracle to me.
Excellent video. Straight to the point, concise visual and verbal instructions, and it straight up worked. No annoying music either. Much thanks. Smashed that like button.
Except the video starts at 1:03 (thanks to sponsorblock)
5 years later and it still works, Thanks mate👍
Upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10 with this guy's help. 🔥
Legend. Never would've worked it out without this video. Thanks mate
You're the reason that i believe love is real! Thnx for saving my life
You're a lifesaver 8/2/2023
I'm so happy I watched all the ads without skipping them
6yrs down the line and it still helps.thanks
I just signed onto my youtube account just to leave a like and comment that this works perfectly after spending hours searching for a solution... thank you so much!
THANK YOU!!! I was so worried. I was building my brother a pc, and then this happened. Thanks you sooo much! Also, when you do the steps, click the back arrow and then go back to it so it updates. Then you can install.
What do you mean go back to it? Back to what?
LEGEND! was battling disk partitions and trying to format the entire disk with no luck. This did the trick, thanks so much!
This was amazing! It was really easy to follow and really simple too. Thanks a lot!
Not only did you save me time. But you saved me from putting a gargantuan hole through my monitor. I can't thank you enough! 🦔❤️
Thank you, 3 days later and its finally all good!
I admit that I was with the ones who made Indian stereotypes before. But 3 years ago when I started a Computer Science College course, the best teachers for techs were always Indians. 3 years later, my respect and love for you guys still grows. Keep it up Lovelots!
It worked! Thanks! Don’t forget to refresh drives on setup screen after converting!
Thankyou so much!!!!! All day i’ve been struggling with this and your method worked first time!!!
I subbed and liked.
Btw if you guys are still getting the error make sure you select the ‘refresh’ button underneath all the listed drives, then it will work!
Again thanks man my windows is installing as we speak!!
Perfect. Dec 2019 works. Don’t forget to refresh the list of drives.
my guy... you have saved my life 5 years later... after i fiddled with my drives and got rid of the windows OS entirely... had troubles after troubles trying to make a bootable usb drive from MAC OS, then having to bypass other windows prompts to get to this installation phase as shown. I appreciate you so much.
Dude you have no idea how many times I have used this video. I love it. Simple & easy.
THANK YOU SO MUCH i was about to start crying I couldn’t find a fix for my problem anywhere that worked for me ,”local disk d is not accessible.”
Very quick and simple explanation I'd give 2 thumbs up if I could. Thank you for taking time to make this video.
I gave you 2 thumbs up for your kind words!
Still saving people 4 years later. Thanks!
You deserve a medal!!!! Worked like a charm!!
This was fast an easy! Thank you for solving my issue.
Thanks a lot man. :) this helped me install to my SSD.
Even 3 years later, you are still saving the day.

I was wasting hours trying to get this to work and this video took two seconds
Actual goat, was on the verge of taking my pc to be repaired at a repair shop.
Holy crap thought I was SOL! Thank you!
Hi Everybody,
I want to install WIN 10 on Macbook pro 15" 2013 and i have the same error. Because my Mac there is only one disk with two partitions (to install Mac OS and Win 10), is there any way convert GPT for only partition Win 10 without changing for Mac patition?
Tai Le hello. Download hard disc driver manager on safari. Instal it and make a partition ntfs with it. After that convert your Disk to « gpt/mbr »
No, macOS disk utility already does that, just select Windows NT based (NTFS) and your partition is NTFS
I just wanted you to know that your video is still saving lives. Thanks a lot mate
Resurrected an old Dell E6410 as a back up PC to my Dell XPS 9370 which has been repaired four times this year. Found your video which allowed me to reinstall Windows 7 on this PC. Many thanks for doing this. It helped a lot as I was getting very frustrated.
Thanks man, salutes from Brasil!

Your 3 year old saved me so much headache lol. Props! 🙏🏽
10 seconds in and I tell myself that its only take 3 mins to fix this issue. Life saver! Thank you!
